In late 1985 Wayne Hussey and Craig Adams left The Sisters Of Mercy and formed The Mission and in early 1986 embarked on their first European tour, supporting The Cult. They released 2 singles independently, both reaching No.1 in the UK alternative charts, before signing a worldwide record deal with Phonogram (now Universal).
Their first single for the new label, "Stay With Me", went straight into the UK chart at No. 30 followed by their debut album "God's Own Medicine" at No. 14. Over the next eight years the band released six more albums and had a further 12 hit singles including the anthemic classics such as "Wasteland", "Tower Of Strength", "Beyond The Pale", "Deliverance" and "Butterfly On A Wheel". Total worldwide record sales to date have now well exceeded 4 million. During this period, The Mission enhanced their reputation as one of the best and most exciting live bands in the world winning countless accolades, and inspiring both lurid media stories and a fanatical following as they toured constantly including highlights like seven sold out consecutive shows at the Astoria Theatre in London, headlining the famous Reading Festival twice, and also playing with U2, The Cure and Robert Plant, amongst others.
In 2003, The Mission continued to play shows around the globe and it was during this time that drummer Steve Spring first played with the band and in April 2004 The Mission filmed and recorded their show in Cologne, Germany for a DVD that is entitled ’Lighting The Candles’ and scheduled for release in late August 2005. To coincide, the band will be embarking on their longest European tour for quite some time. (See the dates below.)
2005 sees The Mission at almost 20 years old but the energy that the band exudes from the stage is the energy of a band that is both still vital and valid and imbued with a self belief and confidence born of knowing that, for the first time in years the band line-up is stable, and their rightful place is amongst the all time greats.
